OK! Тогда вот так.
Джорджу нравилась песня Элвиса Clean Up Your Own Backyard, до такой степени, что Харрисон попытался заполучить ацетатные записи этой песни у RCA для проекта Travelling Wilburys

В книге Пита Шоттона "Джон Леннон в моей жизни":
"Когда Битлз предстали перед "Королем Рок-н-Ролла", он сдиел на диване, непрерывно бренча на гитаре под свои собственные гремевшие через колонки хиты. Удостоив своих прославленных гостей едва заметным кивком, Элвис перевел свое внимание на беззвучно мерцавший цветной телевизор с неестественной контрастностью.
Вечер был спасен от катастрофы Томом Паркером, решившим развлечь Битлз воспоминаниями о своей карнавальной жизни до открытия Великого Элвиса. Он рассказал о своем знаменитом номере со львом, когда он стоял один на один с внешне очень свирепым зверем, у которого (о чем зрители не знали) все зубы и когти были удалены. Этот полукоматозный лев оживал, издавая жуткий рев, каждый раз, когда Паркер тыкал его палкой, в которой, как оказалось, было запрятано мощное электрозарядное устройство.
Джон слушал его, ошеломленный, а полковник тут же поведал о своих потрясающих "танцующих цыплятах", знаменитое выступление которых проходило под запись "Turkey In The Straw" ("Индюк в соломе") и несчастные крохотные существа изображали "танец"; здесь весь "секрет" был в электрической плитке, вмонтированной в дно клетки.
Джону Паркер очень понравился. "Это отличный и настоящий пробивной шоумен, - сказал он мне, которому все это было не известно: мы тогда по-прежнему считали Паркера "отеческой фигурой" государства. - А Элвис... он был совершенно безжизненным. Казалось, что это какой-то ненормальный. Может, он наглотался пилюль или травки, или же просто обожрался, но в любом случае, он был совершенно апатичным и некоммуникабельным."

Ребята! А где фотки Эовиса с Битлами?! ИХ НЕТ!!!

достоверно известно. что в тот вечер битлы и Элвис немного музицировали и чего-то пытались напевать. Говорят, что пленка есть и ее ищут по всему миру почти сорок лет

Elvis + Beatles = Movie

With the 50th Anniversary of Elvis Presley's release of "That's Alright, Mama", and the 40th Anniversary of the Beatles musical explosion on the Ed Sullivan Show, most people feel they've heard all the stories concerning these two musical icons.

Some Elvis and Beatle fans may have heard of the one evening in August, 1965 when these legendary forces came together . . . to party . . jam . . . and create one of the most un-talked about controversial meetings in Rock History.

But most fans do not know the story that occurred before and after this historic meeting between these two musical legends.

Writers Bruce Reid, Robert Stefanow, and Bruce Walker, have spent several years researching from various sources including books, magazines, videos, and live interviews. Based on this information they have written a movie screenplay entitled "The King and the Queens Men".

Author Robert Stefanow has personal insight into the life of Elvis Presley. Robert lived in Memphis for over 20 years and from 1978 to 1980 he helped with security at Graceland. During this time, he developed a close relationship with Elvis' Family, friends, entourage, and the fans, which he maintains to this day. In 1987 Robert married Linda Gail ( the sister of Jerry Lee Louis) bringing him even closer to the inner circle of rock and roll legends. Robert spoke to such people as Charlie Hodge, Joe Esposito, Red and Sonny West, Jerry Schilling, Billy Smith, Dick Grove, Richard Davis ( Memphis Mafia members), and members of Elvis' family in order to gain personal insight into the night Elvis met the Beatles.

We know the story contained in "The King and the Queens Men" will make a historic movie for Elvis and Beatles fans alike. Of all the stories pertaining to Elvis Presley and the Beatles, this is the one True Story . . . . . yet to be told.

Возращаюсь к этой тебе - так у кого-то есть фотографии Элвиса и Битлз вместе?

Привет!

Такая вот подборка воспоминаний по теме:

PAUL McCARTNEY : We met Elvis Presley at the end of our stay in L.A. We'd tried for years to, but we could never get to him. He was our greatest idol, but the styles were changing in favor of us. He was a pretty powerful image to British people. You'd look at photos of him doing American concerts, and the audience would not even be jumping up and down. We used to be amazed, seeing them sitting in the front row - not even dancing.

JOHN LENNON : When I first heard "Heartbreak Hotel," I could hardly make out what was being said. It was just the experience of hearing it and having my hair stand on end. We'd never heard American voices singing like that. They'd always sung like Sinatra who enunciated well. Suddenly, there's this hillbilly hiccupping with echo and all this bluesy background going on. We didn't know what the hell Presley was singing about or Little Richard or Chuck Berry. It took a long time to work out what was going on. To us, it just sounded like great noise.

PAUL : So although we tried many times to meet Elvis, Colonel Tom Parker, his manager would just show up with a few souvenirs, and that would have to do us for a while. We didn't feel brushed off we felt we deserved to be brushed off. After all, he was Elvis, and who were we to dare to want to meet him? But we finally received an invitation to go round and see him when he was making a film in Hollywood.

JOHN : We were always in the wrong place at the wrong time to meet him, and we would have just gone round or something, but there was a whole lot of palaver about where we were going and how many people should go and everything, with the managers, Colonel Tom and Brian Epstein, working everything out.

GEORGE HARRISON : Meeting Elvis was one of the high-lights of the tour. It was funny, because by the time we got near his house we'd forgotten where we were going. We were in a Cadillac limousine, going round and round along Mulholland, and we'd had a couple of "cups of tea" in the back of the car. It didn't really matter where we were going - it's like the comedian Lord Buckley says, "We go into a native village and take a couple of peyote buds, we might not find out where we is, but we'll sure find out who we is."

Anyway, we were just having fun, we were all in hysterics. (We laughed a lot. That's one thing we forgot about for a few years - laughing. When we went through all the lawsuits, it looked as if everything was bleak, but when I think back to before that, I remember we used to laugh all the time.) We pulled up at some big gates and someone said, "Oh yeah, we're going to see Elvis," and we all fell out of the car laughing, trying to pretend we weren't silly, just like a Beatles cartoon.

JOHN : It was very exciting, we were all nervous as hell, and we met him in his big house in L.A. - probably as big as the one we were staying in, but it still felt like "big house, big Elvis." He had lots of guys around him, all these guys that used to live near him (like we did from Liverpool, we always had thousands of Liverpool people around us, so I guess he was the same.) And he had pool tables! Maybe a lot of American houses are like that, but it seemed amazing to us. It was like a nightclub.

RINGO STARR : I was pretty excited about it all, and we were lucky because it was the four of us and we had each other to be with. The house was very big and dark. We walked in, and Elvis was sitting down on a settee in front of the TV. He was playing a bass guitar, which even to this day I find very strange. He had all his guys around him, and we said, "Hi, Elvis." He was pretty shy, and we were a little shy, but between the five of us we kept it rolling. I felt I was more thrilled to meet him than he was to meet me.

PAUL : He showed us in, and he was great. I mean it was Elvis. He just looked like Elvis - we were all major fans, so it was hero worship of a high degree. He said, "Hello, lads - do you want a drink?" We sat down, and we were watching telly, and he had the first remote switcher any of us had ever seen. You just aimed it at the telly and - wow! That's Elvis! He was playing Charlie Rich's "Mohair Sam" all evening - he had it on a jukebox.

JOHN : He had his TV going all the time, which is what I do; we always have TV on. We never watch it - it's just there with no sound on, and we listen to records. In front of the TV, he had a massive amplifier with a bass plugged into it, and he was up playing bass all the time with the picture up on the TV. So we just got in there and played with him. We all plugged in whatever was around, and we played and sang. He had a jukebox, like I do, but I think he had all his hits on it. But if I'd made as many as him, maybe I'd have all mine on.

PAUL : That was the great thing for me, that he was into the bass, So there I was, "Well, let me show you a thing or two, El..." Suddenly he was a mate. It was a great conversation piece for me. I could actually talk about the bass, and we sat around and just enjoyed ourselves. He was great - talkative and friendly and a little bit shy. But that was his image. We expected that, we hoped for that.

JOHN : At first we couldn't make him out. I asked him if he was preparing new ideas for his next film and he drawled, "Ah sure am. Ah play a country boy with a guitar who meets a few gals along the way, and ah sing a few songs." We all looked at one another. Finally Presley and Colonel Parker laughed and explained that the only time they departed from that formula - for Wild in the Country - they lost money.

PAUL : We played a bit of pool with a few of his motorcycle mates, and at about ten o'clock, Priscilla was brought in. To demonstrate the respect that country-and-western people have for their wives. Sometimes it's a bit on the surface - as maybe their situation was shown to be later. It was like, "Here's Priscilla."

RINGO : I don't remember seeing Priscilla there at all, think it wouldn't have mattered to me if she was there, because it was him I came to see. I don't really remember the boys he had with him, either.

PAUL : She came in, and I got this picture of her as a sort of a Barbie doll - with a purple gingham dress and a gingham bow in her very beehive hair, with lots of makeup. We all said hello, and then it was, "Right, lads, hands off - she's going." She didn't stay long.

I can't blame him, although I don't think any of us would have made a pass at her. That was definitely not on - Elvis's wife, you know! That was unthinkable - she didn't need to be put away quite so quickly, we thought.

GEORGE : I don't remember even seeing Priscilla. I spent most of the party trying to suss out from the gang if anybody had any reefers. But they were uppers and whiskey people. They weren't really into reefer smoking in the South.

JOHN : It was nice meeting Elvis. He was just Elvis, you know? He seemed normal to us, and we were asking about his making movies and not doing any personal appearances or TV. I think he enjoys making movies so much, We couldn't stand not doing personal appearances, we'd get bored - we get bored quickly. He says he misses it a bit.

We never talked about anything else - we just played music. He wasn't bigger than us, but he was "the thing." He just wasn't articulate, that's all.

PAUL : It was one of the great meetings of my life. I think he liked us. I think at that time, he may have felt a little bit threatened, but he didn't say anything. We certainly didn't feel any antagonism.

I only met him that once, and then I think the success of our career started to push him out a little, which we were very sad about, because we wanted to coexist with him,

RINGO : I saw him again. I remember one time I got really angry with him because he just wasn't making any music. He'd stopped everything and was just playing football with his guys. So I said, "Why don't you go into a studio and give us some music here? What are you doing?" I can't remember what he said - he probably just walked away and started playing football again.

JOHN : Up until Elvis joined the army, I thought it was beautiful music and Elvis was for me and my generation what the Beatles were to the '60s. But after he went into the army, I think they cut "les bollocks" off. They not only shaved his hair off but I think they shaved between his legs, too. He played some good stuff after the army, but it was never quite the same, It was like something happened to him psychologically. Elvis really died the day he joined the army. That's when they killed him, and the rest was a living death.

Это все с сайта Элвиса

Мне кажется, что фотографий с этой встречи может просто не сущетсвовать. Никто из Битлов не упоминает о том, что они фотографировались вместе или как. Был сделан один снимок Примсциллы, это, кажется и все. Возможно, сам Пресли заранее постпавил такое условие, так как он недолюбливал Битлз. В какой-то крупной английской музыкальной газете в начале 70х я читал статью о том, что Пресли считал Битлз морально разлагающими американскую моложежь и потому несущими в себе угрозу американскому образу жизни. Кроме того он просто ненавидел их прически. Там же в той статье упоминалось, что он настаивал на встрече с Гувером, тогда директором ФБР, чтобы предложить ФБР свои услуги в качестве информатора о "неблагонадежных" музыкального мира. Однако дальше одного из заместителей Бюро ему подняться не удалось из-за того, что Гувер считал самого Элвиса подрывным элементом. Так что вряд ли у Элвиса было желание увековечивать встречу на фото. Если что еще попадется по теме, напишу сюда.

Привет!

Сейчас перечитал комментарии Битлз внимательнее. Так даже снимок Присциллы, якобы сделанный Маккартни, стоит под вопросом, поскольку его She came in and I've got this picture of her... скорее всего значит просто, что она на него произвела впечталение куклы, а не то, что он сделал фото и теперь оно у него есть.

То есть это все написали еще при жизни Э Пресли?

Привет!

Не, это я неточно написал значит по времени. Я из армии пришел в 75, а газета мне попалась году в 76-77. Значит или в последние годы жизни Элвиса или сразу после смерти.
